Hi there, I am new to this mailing list, therefore just a quick info who I am: I am a 38yr old German school teacher close to Hamburg, Germany. Nice to meet you :-)
Either the question I have hasn't been posted yet or I just didn't find a satisfying answer in the archieves (which might mean that I overread it in case it's there). So if this was already talked about, please just give me a good link, thanks :-) My school has got about 1,000 students and about 80 teachers but is still growing. Lower classes are organized in their classes for teaching, and the higher ones use courses on differend levels. Now, I wonder if I can create some config files that I import one by one to schooltool's database, like term duration, timetables, teachers and their courses. Once this is done and all courses have their course IDs, I'd like to import a data file with all students, like: studentID, FirstName, LastName, Class, German course, Maths Course, English Course, Geography course, etc. This data could be available as .xls or .cvs or whatever. I saw importing persons via that import function only allows a few fields, and clicking for each of the 1,000 students once for each course they have looks like work ;-) So, is there a possibility for importing lots of data with only a bit of work? Btw, (what might be interesting to know) I am running SchoolTool 2008.10 on a ubuntu 2.6.24-22. Enjoy your Sunday, Gregor _______________________________________________ Schooltool mailing list [email protected] http://lists.schooltool.org/mailman/listinfo/schooltool
